As the country is apparently in a full anti gun hysteria, the president was playing with toy guns with his daughters, a practice that has been demonized across the country in recent months.

The White House tweeted the picture with the message, “Hope all the dads out there have a great Father’s Day weekend.”

It was recently announced that a school in California would be doing a toy gun buyback where students could trade in their toy guns for a chance to win a new bicycle.

“Playing with toys guns, saying ‘I’m going to shoot you,’ desensitizes them, so as they get older, it’s easier for them to use a real gun,” Chris Hill, the principal who organized the buyback, said said in a statement to Mercury News.

At least two students have been harshly punished for bringing toy guns to schools in recent weeks, one in Maryland and one in Massachusetts.

Multiple students were suspended in Washington for bringing toy Nerf guns to school (they did not resemble real guns and were brightly colored) for a project that was previously OK’d by their teacher.

Anti gun mayor Michael Bloomberg’s New York City government recently fined a small shop owner $60,000 for selling miniature gun shaped lighters since selling toy guns that aren’t brightly colored with non typical gun colors is highly illegal in New York City.

I guess this is just one more example of “do as I say, not as I do” from this administration.
